LOWRY'S PROMISES.
Real Estate Owners Claim They
Have Not Been Fulfilled.

A week ago two petitions, signed by
owners of property on Sixth avenue
north, asking for an extension of the
street car line from Twelfth to Twenty
fourth street, were submitted to the
council committee on railroads. Super
intendent Goodrich was present and
stated that there would not be sufficient
patronage to warrant the extension. He
invited the committee to inspect the
proposed route, and as result of the
little ride taken that afternoon the COM
mittee recommended that the prayer of
the petitioners should not be granted,
but reported in favor of an extension
of the Western avenue line.
The council acted according
to the committees Recommendation,
and yesterday several large property
OwnerS-On Sixth avenue appeared be-
fore the committee in an excited state of
mind. They said that two years ago
President POwry had promised if the
citizens would have the street graded
that the extension would be made to
Twenty-fourth street. The citizens, be-
lieving this, made the necessary adj
vanceS of money to the city and had the
street graded. When the railway COM
pany was called upon to do its part it
did not respond.

tee:
Mr.. Loring and myself have sold lots
TO poor people for their homes upon the as
Surance that they should have street car
line. We did this because Mr.. Lowry had
promised it. We did not want to deceive any
one. Now he says he won't do it because a
little strip of the line is not going to pay him
200 or 800 per cent. profit Immediately. 1t

city with his dinner pail to go to work for

w. A. Barnes said that he had also
sold property to mechanics and work
ingmen upon assurances based upon
Lowry's promises, and several others
made similar statements. 1t was shown
chat on the north side of Sixth avenue
there are 1913 houses occupied, Is vacant,
and 63 in the course Of construction; on
the south side, " occupied, vacant,
and being built. Aid. Clautier, from
the committee, said that after, taking a
Icok at the territory Ire had
agreed with Supt. Goodrich that
Western avenue needed an extension
more than Sixth avenue. Aid. Hans
com said he had previously known
nothing about any promise of an extern
sion on Sixth avenue. If Mr.. Lowry had
made any such promise which he would
not honorably keep as a man, he re-
garded it the duty of the city to see that
he kept his promises. Aid. Stoneman
thought thecommittee could not take
any action. as it had reported to the
council. The committee took this view
of the situation, and the citizens were
Informed that theymust present another
petition TO the council, which can be re-
ferred to the committee again, when a
full investigation will be made.

''There was no occasion for Charles

X. of l.. executive board, yesterday.
''The great philanthropist is answering
questions never asked him. 1t was
never proposed to dictate to him or TO
say of whom he should buy barrels. alt
was simply proposed that GER
tain arrangement be made in
the interest of justice and
humanity, and Mr.. Pillsbury
knows it. If we have any hope of ar
ranging this cooper business, it is be-
cause it is upon so fair and equitable a
basis that we believe all of the mills
must ultimately come to our way of
thinking. All we want is that coopers
get enough to live on, and Is cents a
barrel is little enough. Through the
better Judgment of all concerned we

POLITICS IN IOWA.
Republicans Enthusiastic for Allison
Ths Labor Ticket.

Republicans Enthaslastio for Allison
This labor Ticket.
WATERLOO, Iowa, Sept. 1.-The re-
republican state convention at Dee
Aoines demonstrated clearly that Iowa's
s.fayorite son'' is Senator Allison, and
that, when the proper time comes for
president making, he win be given a
genuine boom from his fellow citizens.
1t is true thai Iowa has been loyal to
Blaine, for Iowa republicans are intensely
American. For this very reason they
admire Senator Allison, and, while they
abate not one particle Of their love for
Blaine, yet they feel that they have with
in their OWN borders a mar who is as
truly republican, as intensely American,
and as able, patriotic, and statesmanlike.
That man is Senator Allison; and, be-
sides having sl these Qualities, he has
none that would. antagonize airy ele-
ments in the party, and he would no. be.
handicapped by the fact Of 2 previous de-
feat. For these reasons Iowa lis for ALI
son and yet, although the great conven
ton was eager to give q formal expres-
sion of It's faith In him, yet 1t was wisely
decided that, at this time, suoh, action
would not be for: the best. The hearty
and long continued cheers. which were
elected by the merest mention OF his
name gave abundant expression Of their
faith in him aud their hope that he may
be the next standard-beare ct the party.
Senator Allison Hnds himself today in a
very eDyisble position. Endorsed by the
largest and most enthusiastic convention
of his party ever held in the state-not,
it lis true, by fulsome resolutions. but by
the unanimous expression Of nearly i, O6O
delegates, and those delegates chosen for
entirely a different purpose, the nomina-
tton of state officers. He has thereby not
only not antagonized any element of the
party or the friends OF any other possible
candidate, but his great strength at
home has been. clearly demonstrated by
this spontaneous and unsought indoYse-
ment. Though he declines to talk upon
the question, yet the expression OF his
nefghbor, Congressman Henderson, may
he taken al that OF his next friend, end
he stated to the convention that he hoped
next year t'to fight under ths banner
borne In his [Allisoq,al hapds.n This
means that Senator Allison will be Jowa,s
candidate for the republican presidential
nomination.
